Mr. Jordan, Thank you for this dispatch ! My favorite toy soldier maker & one of my favorite historical era. This is Spectacular sir. How many different sets were used? Thanks again, Brian

Brian, thank you for your kind words. No idea the exact number of sets/broken-up sets were used in this display (more of our Hocker/Britains display photos of different dioramas will be displayed later this year/next year) I\'ve been collecting new & used Hocker sets since the late 1990\'s. Its always more fun to set them up w/ family & friends rather then have them stored in boxes in the attic/basement etc. I hope more toy soldier collectors/enthusiasts post photos of their collections/displays on Mr. Hocker\'s website here. Easy to find and share with all who are interested.

Hoping to post some of my small collection someday (got into this a little late) Also I agree that they should be on display for all. If you ever travel to Louisville Ky. go to the Frazier Museum, they have a fine collection toy soldiers on display. Again thanks for posting, Brian
